[QUOTE="Mike P, post: 524170, member: 1611"] If like the ebay image, the lamp frame is metal, it should be earthed. I would consider replacing the lamp holder with a brass version with the earth terminal. The later versions had this added for safety. Failing that unwind the earth cable of your cotton covered cable and earth the base of the unit. That would allow you to use the bakelite lamp holder. [/QUOTE]
